Former retail manager Kenneth Mark Cook, 35, had lost his job for the first time in 20 years. He had no prior criminal record except for a few minor traffic infringements. But the Darwin dad resorted to dealing marijuana in his desperation to make money to pay bills and support his wife and children. Cook embarked on the new career path, the Supreme Court heard last week, because Centrelink officials told him to "change his life and re-educate himself" because he was too old to get another retail trade …

Now that recreational use has been dealt with, the WA Government are finally addressing industrial hemp. Hopefully medical use won't be too far behind. If they did it backwards, there'd be too many questions about legitimising or tolerating recreational use - deal with recreational use first and the other topics can be discussed without ambiguity: From: MAPNews <owner-mapnews@mapinc.org> To: mapnews@mapinc.org Subject: MN: Australia: New Laws Clear Way To WA Fields Of Hemp Newshawk: Niall Young Pubdate: Thu, 27 Nov 2003 Source: West Australian (Australia) Copyright: 2003 West Australian Newspapers Limited Contact: letters@wanews.com.au Website: http://www.thew…

Anyone see the horrors of marijuana on Today Tonight this evening? (24th. Nov). Apparently this woman's son killed himself because he smoked all this pot for a few weeks, while on holiday. He returned home, to Tasmania and did himself in. Says a lot more about the situation of living in Tasmania for youth than it does about grass I reckon. But what was amazing was the pictures they showed of this kid on holiday were full of images of Jim bean, and Jack Daniels, and booze was barely mentioned. The idiot woman reckons she felt that he son was in a safe environment because he was in the centre of the country at Alice Springs ( I think it was there), and amongst Abori…
